I'm looking for some opinions. I'm helping my mum to sell her house - have four agents coming around tomorrow to value it but I know ultimately it's our call what price we put it on the market for.
The reason for selling is that my mum bought it as a project 25 years ago, and since then hasn't had enough money to do it up as she'd like. She put in central heating and double glazing but it is a complete refurb job.
The house is a 3 bed semi in a good area with good schools, popular with buyers. Similar 'done' houses in the street go for £160,000-£180,000 depending on whether attics have been converted, extensions done, walls knocked down etc.
To give you an idea of the size of the 'project'... The (massive) garden needs taming, lots of walls need replastering, it needs a new kitchen & wall knocking down (currently tiny kitchen at the back as with most 30s houses) to open up space, new bathroom, complete refurb.
How much should we price it at? We're thinking 130-140,000 and obviously will have a better idea once the agents have been and valued, but wanted some opinions. Also how much should we accept (as opposed to market price) I think 120,000 would be a good price but is this too low?
